EDIT: if possible, please link an embedded image so we can easiky see each place and we scroll so everything doesn’t have to be manualky searchced one by one 😅
When it’s not under threat of being crushed by an angry moon, Clock Town is a very nice place.
Lindblum from Final Fantasy 9 (roman numerals are for goobers)
I adore the concept of a Castle Town where the castle is so big it sorta consumes the entire town. And the whole steam-punk techno-fantasy vibe of the city is extremely pretty.
Academia 4XX AF from Final Fantasy XIII-2! (It’s also my favorite Final Fantasy.)
With this playing:
Top of the dam near ironforge in classic wow before deathwing had his way with it.
The Site of Grace right outside the first Magma Wyrm boss, at the top of the cliff-side village in Elden Ring.
Good view, and there are some singing sirens down below you. It’s where I sit in my world while doing invasions, since you can’t queue for those in the Roundtable Hold (not even down in the lower part where Albrecht invades you which is weird).
Most of ghost of Tsushima, I love the Omni monestary
Pretty much all of the world of Hollow Knight — ie Hallownest. It’s just such a cool and immersive world. It contains such cool architecture, design, and environments.
Any hub world in the Spyro the dragon games. Summer Forest, Autumn plains, even lake are some notable ones for me.
You might enjoy the Any Austin YouTube channel, some of his Unremarkable and Odd places videos.
The city of Zeal in Chrono Trigger. Such a beautiful world if they could just ditch the magical racism
Skellige in Witcher 3 (minus the monsters). I can’t not stop to take in the sights. And the music is *chef’s kiss*.
Skellige is nice, but I prefer Toussaint:
Minus the spirits I’d probably enjoy kicking around the island from Oxenfree.
The Citadel from Mass Effect
With this playing on repeat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLLbzwWam6g
I always loved the Kokiri Forrest in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It’s so cozy, so quaint. I just wanna live there in real life, but with like internet and videogames and stuff.
Could I be a terrible pain in the ass and ask you to embed the link I found here? I want to try and get everyone to embed an image so its easy to browse them without googling each on
Any area in Sky before the Eye of Eden. That whole game is chill ambient spaces pretty much. Even the scary places (besides the Eye).
